The Beauty and the Tragedy

Crabs for Dinner.

After the relocation of houses, the Fields still tried to be close with their relatives from where they used to live. At times they would visit them. These were the times Katelyn loved the most. Her bond with those relatives were obviously tighter than those of the ones with her.

It was morning and Mr. Fields had planned to visit Aunt Emily, Aunt Constance, Aunt Irina and Grandmother Clarice.

By lunch time, Katelyn saw her cousins, Sydney and Jane. They played 'til sunset. Played different games. Simple games that made them really happy as a child.

"Katelyn, time to go." Joe told her daughter. "Okay, papa" Katelyn replied to her father with her squeaky child voice. She was sad to be seperated from her cousins but she just followed her father.

She rode the car and now stayed in the front seat beside her father. She fell asleep, exhausted, probably for playing the whole day.

"Wake up, Katelyn. We're home." Katelyn's father woke her up. She was in her father's arms. She rubbed her eyes then blinked a few times. Everyone was looking at her, smiling. Welcoming her.

Someone ran from inside their house. "Katelyn!!" Rose yelled. She ran to Katelyn, holding a big serving dish containing crabs. "I brought crabs from home. Big ones. I cooked them. I know you like." Rose told her enthusiastically.

Katelyn gave out a big grin. She loved eating crabs, especially ones brought by Rose. The big crabs from her hometown.

Rose asked Joe to carry the dish and also asked if she could carry Katelyn. He nodded and took the dish from her hands. She carried Katelyn like a princess.

For someone as thin as Rose, it was amazing how strong she is. Though Katelyn wasn't heavy.

They entered the house and Katelyn ate her favorite food.
